I wore a more relaxed version of this hair style in an outfit post in June of 2009 but for reasons unbeknownst to me, I never did a tutorial for it. Recently though, a few of my lovely readers have asked for it ...so here it is. Enjoy


. . . wearing the braid out . . .


. . . and a few days ago, I wore it more casually, with straight hair . . .




My bro took these last four the other day ...the ones above these four, I took ...from the reflection in the mirror, which didn't turn out as fantastic, for obvious reasons.

Love it! Now I am going to have to learn how to do a french braid on myself and then learn how to do that one...I also have to grow my hair out at least five inches...argh! Lol.
Love the look.
This is so cute and simple! And you're great at teaching! :P I looooooove how yours is half brown and half blonde, it looks sooo cool :D multi-colored hair for the win! :P I'd never be able to try this out on my hair unless it was like extremely straight (cuz ive got extremely curly hair) but I would love to try it out some day! :D
thanks for sharing

Maegan, you should seriously be a hair stylist. First of all, I'm obsessed with your hair - total hair crush. Secondly, I love how you change it up all the time; all of the styles you do are so effortless-looking, sexy, and creative. I LOVE this loose, bohemian braid you've done. It would be beautiful for a wedding! Annie from Nashville, TN - http://www.achiccritique.com
Pretty!!!
It would be nice if you show us how you do your makeup, I'd love that!!!

WELL COLOR ME HAPPY. Saw the lovely comments you left on my site and popped over to see what you are up to...here I am, glued to the screen, thinking of how I need to grow my hair another 2" so I can braid it up like this. Dang you're good! And you've got some gorgeous hair :)
I'll be popping back soon!
I love how the dark tones of hair come through underneath. Is that your natural colour? It's gorgeous.
Love it! I really want to try this!

omg...I absolutely adore this hairstyle! I wish my hair was long enough!!(:
Can you please come to my house and do this to my hair? Excellent.
I LOVE this!!!
I'm loving this relaxed style yet elegant looking hair do. Its kinda frustrating making braids but I do think practice makes prefect though. I'm starting to practice now. :)
Wonderful! Can't wait to have my hair of the right lenght to do it!
so lovely :)
i copied it 20 minutes after watching the tutorial.
thanks so much for posting this! it's given me variety for my protective styles (i'm "hiding" my hair until september to retain length) & a well-deserved break from my ballerina buns. my hair thanks you.
I wish I never chopped off my hair so I could try this!
I tried it, and got as far as the back of my head... and then I couldn't tell what was happening anymore. I'm hair style retarded, and was super excited at getting the first part looking good. Anyway, I ended up just twisting the rest of it, and it looked, well.... interesting? Yours looks beautiful... I'll practice a little and see what I can do. {sigh} Thank you for the awesome tutorial, though!
so pretty!! prepare to see these photos all over pinterest!
Gorgeous!!
It's a veeery lovly hair style!
Love it :)
Looks fantastic!!!!!!
Total hair envy! So gorgeous :)
I LOVE the hair tutorials. Thank you so much for doing them. I think I'm going to try the french braid tomorrow :)

You look gorgeous! Thanks for sharing :)
Gosh, this looks gorgeous!!
You and your hair are so stunning!
I love it. Hopefully this updo will work with my hair too.
so...i was here a few days ago all ready to tell you how much i LOVE LOVE LOVE this updo and BAM i couldnt leave a msg because my personal family blog had unusual suspicious activity and it was invisible and i had to go through ridiculous security measures to prove it was my blog. i couldnt even comment on any blogger blogs...so HERE I AM AGAIN. just to tell you that i LOVE that friggen updo. lol...that is some serious dedication. =)

The first photo is Amazing..and I saw it some days ago on a norwegian blog..Totally fell in love with this photo..
I am not good with braids..but gonna try this on one of my girls..
i made this tonight. like shari from the previous comments, i made it to the back of my head, and there it looked too low. so i made another braid from the other side, and i connected them where they met in the back.
amazing. i would have never tried this if it wasn't for your tutorial. thanks.
I wore my hair in french braid low bun today and I got so many compliments! its such a great style! I love the tutorials thank you so much!
I watched your video and wore my hair like that last night and got so many compliments! someone even told me that I should always wear it like that, it was so "classically elegant"! Thank you for sharing!
I love this! Soooo beautiful!
this is soo pretty... and omg I have the same copper necklace you are wearing with the black Tshirt. I got mine from my great grandmother, it was hers... I have never seen another one like it until today ;)
I tried this today (and blogged about my attempts) - I absolutely love it, thanks!
Me gustan tus ideas para el cabello. tambien soy rubia y los he aprovechado mucho. Gracias... Eres muy linda!!!
(I like your ideas for hair. well I'm blonde and I used a lot. Thanks ... You're so cute!)
I love this! I know how to french braid but I never tried it on myself
I think it's a lot easier in my opinion to braid my own hair
http://stephtait.tumblr.com/post/6031685689/my-current-obsession
I wore it to a brunch and got a lot of compliments, it's not nearly as neat as yours but I braided in some pink roses to give it my own little twist :)
I love your hair tutorials. I have the same hair type and about the same length as you, so these tutorials work out really well for me. Thank you!
I just randomly stumbled upon your site! Now, I have the braid in my hair :) That was awesome. I've never come across a hair styles blog -such a cool idea. Thank you for the lesson!
Loooooove this! So gorgeous! My hair is juuust long enough to try it I think, yay!
While I was watching the video, my two year old came up and asked who you were, I told her, then she said, "Oh, cute Maegan!" and walked away. lol, you have a young fan.
i absolutely love it! ♥♥♥

I stumbled upon this post in your blog awhile ago and fell in love with it! I do this style all the time (the down do version) and always always always get tons of compliments just on the sheer originality of it. I was stumbling this evening when I found another site that reposted it and didnt credit you (just used your photos and video) and it made me a little mad, so i put the link to the article so you could contact them and right their wrong. this style is to awesome for them to jack.
I am going to try this very soon - this looks awesome!
